The Best Man Holiday (2013)

The Best Man Holiday Synopsis

After nearly 15 years apart, Taye Diggs (televisionís Private Practice), Nia Long (Soul Food), Morris Chestnut (Kick-Ass 2), Harold Perrineau (Zero Dark Thirty), Terrence Howard (Hustle & Flow), Sanaa Lathan (Contagion), Monica Calhoun (Love & Basketball), Melissa De Sousa (Miss Congeniality) and Regina Hall (Scary Movie franchise) reprise their career-launching roles in The Best Man Holiday, the long-awaited next chapter to the film that ushered in a new era of comedy. When the college friends finally reunite over the Christmas holidays, they will discover just how easy it is for long-forgotten rivalries and romances to be ignited.

With a plot that was raucous, humorous and emotional, The Best Man Holiday engaged audiences when it hit theaters in November. In just a short time, the film will also be able to bring good cheer to audiences in their own homes.

It took 14 years for a sequel to The Best Man to get made, but after that movie's massive opening weekend, the third film in the series will come a whole lot sooner. Malcolm D. Lee's The Best Man Holiday, which reunited the cast of The Best Man, made a whopping $30 million over the weekend, and now Deadline reports that Lee is negotiating a deal with Universal Pictures to write, direct and produce another film in the serie

It was a weekend worth celebrating for the heavily marketed The Best Man Holiday. The follow up to the lesser known 1999 release The Best Man banked $30 million against its modest $17 million budget for a financially solid opening.

Alas, life goes on, and this Sunday may have just been made for football. This week we head off to a pre-wedding holiday
